We went to a holiday tasting at a local wineshop and this was one that impressed both of us. Sort of a strange nose at first with what seemed like fuel oil, but got over that and noticed peaches. Nice spicey peache and apple taste with good acidity and a very slight bit of sweetness. We've never been big fans of Alsace (or German) wines but this one was so nice Judy insisted we get add four to the two mixed cases we took home.

IK, The net price was $14, and it appears to be very limited. They had three cases at that shop out of about 120 imported. Besides the really nice taste, that's one of the reasons we picked up four bottles. Kind of hate tasting a good wine and finding out we can't get it, so we made the most of the opportunity, but in retrospect I think we should have picked up more.

WOW,

You're right, the petrol nose didn't put us off, though it was somewhat strange to encounter when we're not used to it. It looks like Judy's been made a convert, so we may be making more forays into Alsace and probably Germany in the future. It's not like I haven't tried before, but this one did it. It's amazing, too, because this is supposedly near the lower end of their offerings.
